The Mush God of Mystical “Illumination”:

[Jesus] said, GOD IS LOVE — period. But there is more to the message of Jesus. He insisted that His Father is crazy with love, that God is a kooky God who can scarcely bear to be without us.
(teacher of Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism Brennan Manning, The Ragamuffin Gospel, 171)

Or …

The LORD God Almighty of Biblical Revelation:

the Christian conception of God current in these middle years of the twentieth century is so decadent as to be utterly beneath the dignity of the Most High God and actually to constitute for professed believers something amounting to a moral calamity.
(Pastor A.W. Tozer, The Quotable Tozer I, 77,78)

And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. (Joshua 24:15)
